NEWSOM, MINORITY STAFF DIRECTOR 'Umted States senate SELECT COMMITTEE ON INTELLIGENCE WASHINGTON, DC 20510 Executive Registry January 17, 1986 The Honorable William J. Casey Director of Central Intelligence Central Intelligence Agency Washington, D.C. 20505 0168x In response, please refer to 86-0161 The Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1986 established a requirement for you to prepare and submit with the FY 1987 NFIP budget a National Intelligence Strategy. The Act also set forth a number of components to be included in the National Intelligence Strategy in order to achieve our goals of (1) making national intelligence more respon- sive and more relevant to the needs of the intelligence consumer; (2) strengthening Congressional oversight of national intelligence and the Intelligence Community; (3) improving the understanding of both the Executive and Legislative Branches of the objectives of the intelligence investment program and the methods used to plan and manage national intelligence; and (4) better preparing U.S. national intelligence and the intelligence Community for the future. It is our understanding that you will complete prep- aration of the National Intelligence Strategy by mid-January. Accordingly, we invite you to appear before the Committee to brief us on this effort on Wednesday, January 29, 1986, in room SH-219 at 9:30 AM. The Committee has long believed that the National Intelligence Strategy should represent your vision of the Intelligence Community's future, and it is this vision that we would like you to present at this session. In particular, we request that you address the following areas of interest relative to the Strategy: o How the Strategy was developed, the methodologies used to prepare it, and how it has been (or will be) coordinated with intelligence consumers; Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/03/08: CIA-RDP90BO139OR000400580027-4 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/03/08: CIA-RDP90BO139OR000400580027-4 The Honorable William J. Casey January 17, 1986 Page Two o The critical developments in the intelligence environment (both current and projected) that have shaped the Strategy, and the effects that those developments have had on both prior intelligence investment priorities and plans for the future; and o The key intelligence requirements identified by the Strategy, their priorities, and their effects on both prior intelligence investment priorities and plans for the future. We ask that you limit your presentation to about 30 minutes to permit the maximum amount of time for questions by the Committee. Finally, we intend to address the Covert Action Annex to the National Intelligence Strategy at our Covert Action budget hearing, so you need not include this aspect of the Strategy in your presentation. We look forward to worki ith you on the National Intelligence Strategy and t nk y in advance for your cooperation.
